defective switch right out of box!

I purchased a Kenmore cooktop, this range hood, and a Kenmore dishwasher at Sears during a recent sale. After the install, I was very dissapointed to find the fan switch was defective. I called Sears, and a service man came out to confirm the bad switch. A new switch was ordered and sent out to my house, and a second service call was scheduled to install the replacement (about 2 weeks total).
On the upside, the unit appears to be well made other than the controls. I like the way it extends over the front of the cooktop, and the fan runs fairly quiet with good power.

"Stainless Steel" Kenmore 36" Deluxe Hood

I selected this model in part because dimensionally it generally matched my old Nutone hood. The installation was reasonably easy. At a certain low speed my old hood fan, even when new, would go into resonance and tend to rattle the wall. This fan runs smoothly at all speeds. The back panel, fan cover, and top of the hood are not stainless steel.
